Target Species

Marble groupers can grow up to 4 feet in length and weigh over 40 pounds. This species is not as commonly targeted by anglers, but its firm, white meat makes it a prized and valued game fish.

Barrelfish are targeted using deep-water fishing techniques, particularly with squid or other deep-water baits. The meat is firm and white, resembling that of grouper, and is highly prized in the culinary world.

The Tilefish is a bottom-dwelling species known for its bright blue and yellow coloration. They inhabit deep waters, living in burrows they dig in sandy or muddy substrates at depths of 600-900 feet. Anglers typically use deep-drop techniques to catch tilefish, which are highly valued for their mild, flaky meat that is a favorite among chefs.
